The shadow formed by the point source of light has a screen blocking it. So it is very precise and only forms an umbra. Whereas the other is not as precise and forms an umbra and a penumbra.

What is the Difference between the shadow formed in noon n in the evening?

The primary difference between shadows formed at noon and in the evening lies in the angle of the sunlight. At noon, the sun is at its highest point in the sky, resulting in shorter shadows that are more directly beneath objects. In the evening, the sun is lower on the horizon, causing longer shadows that stretch away from the light source. This change in shadow length and direction is due to the sun's position relative to the Earth.
